[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1152245, member: 14585"] Yes, but Texas isn't an option for this kid. Like I said "Excellent Idea Lauralee." IF 4-H in their area had a similar option they wouldn't be asking. So how to apply it to this situation? Contact the local sales barn with the heaviest dairy traffic. They may or may not allow the heifer to be lead into the ring, depending on set up and insurance coverage... BUT at the very least auctioneer will make a special point to introduce the 4-H owner and the heifer as a show animal. I have seen it done here and animal always brings a $100-$200 more than it would otherwise bring. Sales barns love the opportunity to show support of local consignors and advertise that they bring quality animals in for sale. Dollars to doughnuts, I'll bet if a Thank You Note is received from a 4-Her it will be displayed somewhere within the sales barn. [/QUOTE]
